Is this product supposed to be waterproof? I assumed it was since it's an outdoor light but It has stopped working after being in the rain.

The same thing happens to me but afther six months and after a heavy rain, I take it out and becomes a great brick or paperweight,I try to desasembly an fix but there's no solution at least you become ant-man and fix it, they said "it's waterproof" and "spot lights" but this light is more like Flood and definitely not weather resistant..

If by that you mean "is it water proof", almost nothing electrical that isn't sealed is safe for outdoor use. On the other hand it is ruggedly built with an on-off switch to turn on-off electrical power. But I wouldn't leave it outside in the rain.

I don't think it's waterproof - at least it doesn't say so on the lamp itself. There are no weatherproof gaskets on the battery compartment so I wouldn't trust it in damp weather. But it is portable so you could use it on a picnic table in the evening without a problem provided you take it back in the house later.

I find that the light is water resistant. It held up fine in a drizzle during one of my rides. The battery compartment is well sealed by the fine threading used. It is an all metal body for the light. The push button switch used to operate the different modes is inside a rubber nipple. I would not be afraid to use this light in a rainstorm.

I think that the unit is water resistant which is NOT waterproof. The light is recharged via a USB slot and therefore prone to some possible water seepage. There is a rubber insert that slots into the USB port but that can be dislodged if not inserted carefully and therefore could expose the unit to possible water leakage.

I purchased this light fixture and mine is mounted outside in my entry way. Works nicely! I would not mount it somewhere that it could get wet.

as I am an electrician I do not suggest any product to be used outdoors unless "waterproof" is specified, and the company will advertise that as it is a selling point. although any illuminator can be used outdoors if concealed in a weather proof enclosure.

I spliced the wire into an existing low voltage line and double heat-shrinked the connections, since I used it submerged in a koi pond. The light worked fine for a while, but quit. When I pulled it out it had water in it. I added a bunch of silicone around the wire and let it cure. Also replaced the bulb and tried it again. Same result, it quit working after a short period. I think it's leaking around the lense. The o-ring doesn't seem very resilient and appears to have relaxed against the glass. If you are using it around a pond, not in it, it might be okay.

Not sure but if I had to guess its because your using it outside .. If you read the bulb it says use in DRY place... And u got some water in it

Can you use it outside, yes. Is it an outdoor light, no. It's not waterproof at all. The power cord is only like 5ft, and you wouldn't be able to see them unless it's dark with almost no other lights around it. if you keep rain off of it you might be able to use it for less than a day outside, but if you left it outside to get rinsed on it would break

The dimmer switch portion does not look like it's waterproof. I think it would be a shock hazard if it got wet.

During a heavy rainstorm water got in one side and one led went out. (It turned black) The light only put out about as much as a candle and was rendered useless. I replaced it and overkilled the silicone sealant around it. Don't let water get into it. See my review under the name Phillip.

All I can tell you is that in an enclosed outdoor fixture, this bulb works very well. It would be unusual for a bulb to work through the rain in an un-enclosed fixture. Hope this helps!

These lights are NOT waterproof. If you're going to use them outside, they can't be anywhere that they might actually get really wet. Particularly not somewhere that water might run down in from the 'back' side.

I don't know how it would do in the rain. It's battery operated. But it's certainly good for emergency lighting. However, the sensor mechanism did stop working for me after 2 months. I can still turn the light on manually but the sensor may not have a long life.

I have mine under an awning, so it gets rained on a little and still works. It's technically outside, but I wouldn't call it waterproof.
